BACKGROUND

The Intelligent Risk Management Model

Based on the findings of the HBI, the I-KiZ works with an Intelligent Risk Management model for youth media
protection.

The model consists of an age-related concept designed both to avoid confronting children with harmful content and contacts, and to promote strategies to counter and deal with the same.

The ultimate objective of Intelligent Risk Management is to counter the risks and dangers that can affect children and adolescents through the use of the Internet, with a joint approach based on shared responsibility and competencies. This approach must take into account both the differing levels of potential threats as well as the differing usages children make of the Internet.
The social background and educational level here can influence the differing conditions and existing knowledge of children and adolescents in the various stages of childhood and youth.
